UPDATES

       Recently I released a Visionary novel which delves into the Nag Hammadi texts to elucidate the Gnostic worldview.
       ...Its narrative moves with ease through dreams, visions, madness and higher states on consciousness.
       Discount copies may be ordered through my new site: GnosticQ.com.

       For the third year in a row, I gave a presentation on Entheogens and Visionary Art at the Paris Colloquium on Hallucinations in Philosophy & Cognitive Science.
       Rick Doblin of MAPS, author Benny Shanon, director Jan Kounen and a host of others participated in the 4-day event.
       See: hallucinations.risc.cnrs.fr (in French) as a new site for those interested in Cognitive Science as an approach to entheogenic visions and consciousness.

       Two of my works are included in the 5th issue of the CoSM Journal - a special issue on Ritual and Mystery Schools.

      Last August, Alex Grey and I got together at The Chapel of Sacred Mirros in New York for an Entheologue discussion on the role of Entheogens in Visionary Art.

       I'm pleased to be included among the group of European Artists (Fuchs, Brauer, Hausner, Giger, De Es, etc) in the forthcoming Visionary Art Show.

       The new millennium brought about a lot of interesting changes in my life.

       Thanks to Andrew Gonzalez and Amanda Sage, I met Ernst Fuchs in the summer of 2000. Together we worked with him in THE APOCALYPSE CHAPEL in Southern Austria, then Andrew and I attended the Old Masters / New Visions Seminar. The entire adventure is on view.

       In 2001, I moved to Monaco and apprenticed under Ernst Fuchs for a year, working with him on larger paintings in his studio in the South of France. I wrote an account of that experience (with photos) called LEARNING TO SEE.

       Upon my return to Paris, I launched The Visionary Revue with its Manifesto of Visionary Art. One result was an INTERVIEW in Mental Contagion magazine.

       In the Spring of 2003 I travelled through Egypt, India, Nepal and Tibet, sketching and photographing images among the temples, tombs and ruins. These have been brought together into a photo album: A VISIONARY JOURNEY TO THE EAST.

       Dreams are the main sources of my paintings, and I continue to have some strange and incredible ones. The latest, which I call THE ANCIENT CADUCEUS has primaeval animals and became a reflection on death and rebirth. A sample of my dreams from the last 25 years can be found in my DREAM JOURNAL.

       In August of 2007, Alex Grey and I held an ENTHEOLOGUE at the Chapel of Sacred Mirros in New York. The event was recorded and is now available.

       All of these events are brought together in the FEATURES section.
